Cardinal Contracting Company Inc

What this record tells you

Cardinal Contracting Company Inc holds Florida licence CBC1261028, a CBC classification which authorises work as a certified/registered building or residential contractor. A "C" prefix means the licence is certified — valid anywhere in Florida.

This licence was first issued in 2016, which makes it an established licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 57% of the 1,681 active home building & remodeling licences based in the Jacksonville area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2012. That is 10 years of continuous licensure.

Cardinal Contracting Company Inc is one of 19 active home building & remodeling licences registered to an address in Macclenny, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against. Matthew G Austin additionally holds 3 other active Florida licences in our records, which can indicate a contractor qualified across more than one trade or entity.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 08/31/2026. Florida licences renew on a fixed cycle, and a licence that is not renewed moves to delinquent status — which is why the expiry date matters if you are planning work close to that date. Confirm the current status on the state portal before signing a contract.
